Volume 2 The Turmoil in the Rivers and Lakes Chapter 59 The Final Blow
on the city walls.
The Thunder City Lord in military uniform stood at the head of the wall and looked south, his expression was serious and solemn, in fact, more than half of it was because his stomach was too hard - his belly was too big, and he put on his armor this morning with the help of his concubine. Pampered for too long, sometimes he forgets that he is still a soldier.
He didn't want to forget, but he had to. His status is too high and sensitive, if he exercises every day and reads military books every night, the imperial court will definitely know about it, and speculate some conclusions that no one wants to see: Prince Ji, you are guarding southern Xinjiang, there are no strong enemies outside and no thieves inside, why do you have people under your command who are working hard?
As the person closest to the dragon chair, it is better to be incompetent than to be regarded as a hard work by the owner of the dragon chair. The eight princes are all very smart, and they have proved themselves to be mediocre in different ways, so the saint has always been very relieved. In the world, this is the most appropriate situation.
The problem is now that the troubled times have begun, and the one that governs the world no longer works. Relatives and eunuchs interfere in politics, and the saint is obsessed with the mystic art of immortality, regardless of the government, but there is a drought that is rare in a hundred years, and countless visitors (adventurers) from outside the world appear, even Lei Zhenyu, who has never believed in ghosts and gods, feels that it is some kind of omen...... There is no need for the princes to look at it, the dragon chair is already crumbling.
So Prince Ji sent such a task: Master Ding, a Taoist man, came from afar, and he had to look at it with his horse's head.
The message is brief, but that's because it's all in plain sight. As a subordinate, speculating on the master's mind is the basic skill, and many things that are inconvenient for the master to say, the subordinates must be able to hear and hear clearly, and then they can do it. So Lei Zhenyu took Bao Feng to learn from him, one for official business, and the other for the sake of bird's breath that he had endured over the years - relying on the opposing positions, the guy surnamed Bao did not block him.
"Your Excellency." The adjutant general's voice interrupted the musings. "At this time, the swarm has collapsed, the adventurers are unable to fight anymore, and the monsters may escape at any time, but do you want us to go out of the city to kill?"
The Thunder City Lord was silent.
The adjutant general clenched his fists: "My lord, the military situation is urgent, please make a decision quickly." ”
At this time, there was a person who hurriedly went up to the wall with the front of his robe, but it was the steward of the city lord's mansion, so it was no wonder that the soldiers did not stop him. The steward ran to the side of the Lei City Lord, his breath was not even, and he didn't care that he would spray it on the side of the City Lord's neck, and said in his ear: "Distinguished guest, ha, suddenly, when I went out, the direction was the south gate." ”
The city lord immediately said to the lieutenant general: "Hold your troops and don't move." ”
Although the adjutant general was puzzled, he still passed on the order.
Perhaps everyone will notice the bravery of those adventurers and the strong fighting power of the spider spirit, but all this is really meaningless. Collusion with monsters and troubles in the town, such a big crime is no less than treason and rebellion, Magnolia must die, and must die to be known to the world, this is Master Ding's plan that has already been set, so Master Ding will leave the mansion alone, and now most of them are ambushed in the forest of corpses. Therefore, looking at a mortal person struggling to the death, the Thunder City Lord only felt that the other party was really stupid, and even the adventurer was really stupid.
It's just a game of chess, and the life and death of the chess pieces are all in the player's thoughts.
Lei Zhenyu suddenly thought: Are he, Bao Fengxue, and Master Ding also the pawns of the big shots?
————————————————————————————————————
The Cave Field.
After killing the Moon Demon, Magnolia couldn't wait to bow his head and swallow his hand and the "Seed of Demon Power", and the damaged mouthparts hung down with cloudy slime. The land within a few hundred meters of it is filthy, with the corpses of humans and insects overlapping each other, knotted feet and severed arms hooked to each other, and the red and green liquid blends into grotesque paint. The smell continued to emanate from the mixture, and the wind blew into the forest of dead bodies, so that the birds hovered over the forest and did not dare to return to their nests.
When Magnolia first appeared, everything was quiet, and all the creatures did not dare to make a sound; It's still quiet, because most of the creatures are dead and can no longer be silent.
As of now, the humanoid Magnolia has lost two arms and a weapon that can switch between whip and net modes, and [Binding Immortal Silk] (immobilization) cannot be used; The mouthparts, chelicera, and two long legs of the overlord spider Magnolia are also injured, and [Hook Kiss] (stealing blood) and [Blood Exhaustion] (highly poisonous) cannot be used. [Exploitation] (buff) has been used, such a strong trick may not be able to be used a second time; [Aconite] seems to be parasitic on a certain unit of the "Seed of Demon Power", and it should not be useful even now. After all, the only thing Magnolia can use is [lichen] (it doesn't sound amazing).
The overlord spider has become weaker, but why don't players also become weaker? If the two masters of Wind and Moon Demon have been defeated one after another, the Xuanyuan Guild's plan to kill the boss has actually failed.
The Human Emperor thought for a short moment before deciding to continue fighting. His thoughts are actually very rational: he has already paid so much price, if he doesn't kill the boss, what is the face of the boss? And with the character of the boss, as long as you can win the boss, any price is not worth mentioning. How simple is it for those who are dead or lose their equipment to receive compensation, and for those who have merit to get bonuses?
At this time, the Overlord Spider had already eaten the "Demon Power Seed" after the Demon Thorn Worm, and it was not in a hurry to leave, and began to rummage around to pick up corpses and look for the dead Demon Thorn. The swarm and the thorn have long since dispersed, so it can go unhindered. However, players are starting to move closer to it, and the fierce battle is about to begin.
"Do you really want to do that? Don't wait for them to come back? Ryujin asked.
The Human Emperor shook his head. He held the "illusion charm" in his sleeve, and his eyes were blank. Moon Demon, if the wind, you are not the only ones who have the trick to press the bottom of the box.
As a talisman heir, he can use all kinds of rune paper, and the strongest rune paper on hand is this "transfiguration talisman". The rune paper is smoked with Hexiang "Seeking the Dragon in the Sea of Clouds", and the cinnabar mixed with the tears of the mermaid is used as ink, and roughly converted, this rune paper is worth 3,000 yuan. Although the "Transfiguration Charm" is not lethal, it can generate an illusion aimed at the target, and Magnolia can only be used by mermaids once it is hit.
His tactical purpose is to use a large number of human lives to consume the monster's physical strength, so that he has the opportunity to cast the "Illusion Charm". He soon got his wish, it should be said that Magnolia was too cooperative. As the overlord of the Forest of the Dead, how could Magnolia be stupidly waiting to be surrounded by humans? Without thinking, it rushes straight into the middle of the player and starts killing. It proves with its actions: it is the hunter.
The weapon of the warrior, the slash does not hurt it; The Taoist priest's spell can't blow it up. It moves extremely fast, and its huge body moves like a cloud shadow, and you can't catch up when you want to chase it, and you can't dodge it when you want to dodge. It is high above, looking at the overall situation, and has insight into every command of the Human Emperor, knowing how the human race will deploy next; Again, it uses its body so wisely, dividing the ranks of players time and time again, making it difficult for them to help each other. When its vicious, ugly head hangs in front of them, every player feels isolated, as if only they have to bear the ferocity of monsters in heaven and earth.
Sensing that Magnolia was getting closer and closer, the dragon god asked uneasily, "Have you contacted the two of them?" When will they arrive? ”
The emperor did not squint, and his heart became more and more dissatisfied. He really didn't contact the Moon Demon and Ruofeng, because it wasn't necessary. Dragon God, Dragon God, you are also a professional gamer, can you have a little self-esteem? Could it be that without them we would have lost? My name is just a decoration?
Bang, bang. To deal with prey that is much smaller than his own, Magnolia is used to stepping on it. The fleshy foot didn't look lethal, and it was only when it was pressed against the body that it was realized that it was no different from a stamping machine. Each snap represents a second kill, and the second kill is the most representative of the gap between the two sides of the killing method, which can bring endless pressure to the victim's side. The organizational structure of the Xuanyuan Guild was not tight, and the remaining members could not withstand the pressure, and finally began to collapse.
In the crowd that dispersed, the human emperor stood still, and the dragon god accompanied him helplessly.
"I'll fix it later, and you'll do it." The Emperor commanded.
Among the four backbones, only the dragon god is not good at technology (he is good at running guilds), and the human emperor asked the dragon god to deal with the boss. But when the two of them controlled the guild together, the human emperor saw it better than anyone else: the dragon god worked hard. While other players are working hard to fight monsters and level up, the two who can't get out of their way due to official duties can only practice their skills and improve their skill proficiency, so as not to be left too far behind by the first group.
At that time, the dragon god slashed, chopped, and chopped on the eaves every day, as if he never felt bored. This person can be entrusted with heavy responsibilities.
After the Emperor gave the order, he began to act, and the talisman flew towards Magnolia.
Magnolia is actually most concerned about the human emperor, because it still has a deep memory of the "shapeshifter". It bounces lightly, not only dodging the rune fire, but also getting out of the range of the Human Emperor's attack, and crushing an unlucky player to the ground with its long legs.
However, the Human Emperor appeared beside it! The first spell is just a disguise, what he really wants to use is the "shapeshifting talisman", send himself to the monster, and increase the probability of hitting! Who would have thought that the Human Emperor, who had been commanding from afar, would personally get into danger?!
Magnolia only had time to lift his feet. The Human Emperor had activated the "Transfiguration Charm", and the position of the shot was the oncoming worm foot, shouting: "Hurry up!" ”
Rune Fire hits!
The hit was the unlucky player who had just been run over, but was not run over! The power of the talisman is really fierce, and the player is instantly blinded and stupid, but this talisman should not be used on him! The Emperor was dumbfounded. What's going on? Didn't you aim at the other person's foot that was poking in...... Can it also secrete spider silk on its feet? So deliberately left the player's life to block the move?
He didn't have time to think about it any more, because the player and the great step behind the player had already arrived. Snapping, the two of them turned into meat sauce together, face to face.
Ryujin, who rushed halfway through, immediately turned around and left.
After defeating the player base, Magnolia was very satisfied. But now is not the time to relax, its mission has been accomplished, and the next step is to prepare to escape, or resist. Either way, you'll need to recover the "Demon Power Seed", so it's imperative to deal with the Demon Thorn.
It suddenly noticed something unusual and looked down.
There was a wrinkled thing with wrinkled skin underneath him, and Magnolia looked at it for two or three seconds before confirming that it was a demon thorn worm - it was not dead after being dug up the "Seed of Demon Power"! It's just that it can no longer maintain its human form (even if it's only half humanoid), and its skin is crumbling and peeling off like years of wallpaper, revealing an old, wrinkled, white-to-yellow insect body. Most of the human skin on its face was also broken, and the eyes that belonged to the insect and the eyes that belonged to the human showed resentment and pleasure together: "Magnolia, I'm waiting for you at the end of the rot!" ”
As soon as the overlord spider lifted its foot, it easily crushed the queen to death. It's still thinking: why is the queen still happy when she dies, does it really think that it can drag itself into the water?
It thought this, and suddenly a sharp pain came from the outside to the inside of its back. It immediately understood that it was its vulnerability. But what about it? Although my back is a key point that I can't defend, what means can a first-time human be able to defeat me? It's stupid, now as long as I roll around, you're going to die, if you're smart, leave quickly. After the worm, you are also stupid to expect humans to avenge you.
But the pain did not subside, but gathered strength in a desperate way. There was so much of the aura of the sword soldiers that it overflowed, and just the little thing that flowed out had left a large number of abrasions on the wound, making it difficult for the body of the monster to stop the bleeding. Eventually, the pain exploded. The aura of those swords and soldiers sprayed in many directions in a chaotic manner (as if the other party had not thought about controlling it at all), exploding a cloud of summer fireworks in Magnolia's body, and each trajectory of the fireworks was a sword, cutting the contents of Magnolia's chest and abdomen into pieces. The contents include internal organs, including meridians, including muscles, and Magnolia, which has lost these three things, has also lost the strength to support itself, and its gaze sinks heavily, and before its vision is buried by dust, it sees the happy smiling face of the insect queen.
